    Ultimately, it’s a bit of fun, it’s pretty low stress… the crime scenes aren’t particularly gruesome and the art style is a bit like a more realistic version of Job Simulator… which is kind of fitting given the main characters. This setting with these protagonists/antagonists works well with the AI chat format… I’m not sure it would work quite so well with human suspects without starting to sound a bit artificial… but here it works.

    Uncover the Smoking Gun has really interesting and original gameplay mechanics and can be really fun. The handful of issues that exist aren’t too big, and although not cheap, the price is more than fair for what the game does.

    This game successfully integrates real-time conversations with NPC AI powered by Chat GPT within the framework of a classic detective adventure. By utilizing the technology as a tool within the game rather than relying solely on its novelty, it enhances the overall immersion. The next challenge for AI in gaming is highly anticipated.
